How it works

From the technical file to the injection-moulded part.

We review your part, material and objective to define the best route: TPI-Pro, a custom mould, an injection service or a combination.

Velutina design, real two-cavity mould and injection-moulded parts

Overview

A technical process, explained with sound judgement.

Each project depends on the part, material, mould and customer objective. We therefore start by reviewing the design and proposing the most logical route before manufacturing, testing or quoting.

Workflow

How a request becomes a real part.

The route can vary by project, but this is the usual structure for a machine, mould, injection service or combination.

01

Send a part or technical file

The customer sends a STEP, STP, IGS or STL file, PDF drawing, physical sample or clear project description.

02

Feasibility review

We assess geometry, demoulding, wall thicknesses, intended material, size and initial mould complexity.

03

Estimate and proposal

We prepare initial guidance on a machine, mould, service or complete project, always subject to technical review.

04

Mould design and manufacture

When the project proceeds, we define the TPI-Pro-compatible mould and prepare it for the first trials.

05

Injection trial

We test material, cycle, gating, ejection and finish to identify adjustments before validating the part.

06

Validation and delivery

We deliver the machine, mould, parts or agreed solution with the information needed to continue working.

Files and samples

Your file helps us start with real data.

A better-defined starting point lets us assess the mould faster and identify potential problems before manufacturing.

Technical review

Not everything that can be 3D printed can be injection moulded.

A part may look right in 3D yet need changes to demoulding, wall thicknesses, gates, ejection or material. This review avoids proceeding with a mould that later needs major corrections.

Three common routes

The process changes according to your needs.

View inside TPI-Pro

I want a TPI-Pro

We assess whether you need a machine alone, a machine with a mould or a setup prepared for your parts.

Aluminium mould with rounded cavities

I need a mould

We start with your part to estimate complexity, manufacture the mould and test it before delivery.

Batch of black curved parts

I need samples or short runs

We can help with trials, validation, pre-series or occasional injection services.

Important

An automatic estimate does not replace a human review.

The analysis system provides guidance on cost and feasibility, but final decisions on moulds, manufacturing and quotations always require technical review. Fewer assumptions, more informed mould design.

Would you like to know whether your part is feasible?

Upload your file through the client area or tell us about your sample, drawing or application. Together we review the best route: mould, trial, injection service or TPI-Pro configured for your project.
